Chapter 2

DEAN P.O.V

"I can't believe we didn't gank them while they were in our reach!" I shouted for the fortieth time. Sam and I returned to our motel after the two werewolf creatures escaped through the window. Sam was stitching the wound the brown wolf left on my neck while I kept raging on.

"If you don't stop moving the stitching isn't going to be effective!" Sam scolded me again.

I almost rolled my eyes but I knew Sam was right. That wolf had done a good job on my neck, the wound stung deep into the side of my neck but it wasn't anything I wasn't used to.

"Besides yelling about it isn't gonna change the fact they got away...The question is what are we gonna do now?" Sam said as he finished up the stitches. "They'll certainly make it harder to find them now that we know what they are."

"We gotta find them again. I don't feel right leaving pure blooded killers in the world."

"That's just it though, we don't know if they killed anyone."

"And we don't know that they haven't!" I countered. "All monsters are the same, Sammy. They kill and that's all we need to know. Let's pack up and trace their steps."

Sammy and I went back to the motel room that the werewolf creatures were staying. No one had cleaned up the room yet so we still had things to check out. Unfortunately, because we made such a mess and there was blood on the floor, the police thought there was some sort of crime scene so the room was blocked off by by yellow tape. A few cop cars were flashing their lights while a cop talked with his partner. Sam and I approached them.

"Hello, officers," I said flashing him my fake FBI badge. "What happened here?"

"This case hasn't even been opened to the public yet. Why are the feds here?"

"We were in the neighborhood." I told them with a forced smile.

"Well, agents we have no idea what happened." The cop shrugged and told us everything he knew. "The girls who were renting the room seemed to have left pretty quickly." He said leading us into the room and pointing out every clue they found. "It wasn't a forced entry but the dents in the door suggests someone tried to get in after they opened the door." I shuddered when I remembered how I had forced my foot in the door. "The girls who rented this room checked in as Danny and Adora but the identification that we found in their bag listed a large number of aliases, its likely their check-in name was fake too." The cop paused then seemed to remember something and lead us to the bathroom. "At first we thought this could be a robbery but then we saw this." He pulled back the shower curtain. In the tub was multiple streams of red liquid still wet from recently taken showers.

"Blood?" I questioned.

"Yeah, we were just going to bring it back to the lab and have it examined. Here's the address if you wanna follow up on this." He scrawled words in his notebook then handed it to us. I took it checking the address before thanking him for his time.

"Are the werewolves hunters like us?" Sam asked as we walked back to the car. I stopped dead in my tracks and anger flared up inside me. Hunters? No fucking way! I turned to Sam who looked concerned.

"No. They are nothing like us, Sammy. As for them being hunters, who knows how many innocent people those monsters ripped apart. We have to find them and kill them before they hurt more people."

DANNY P.O.V

"Guess what I found!" I loudly exclaimed as I entered the motel room. I held three boxes of steaming pizza in my hands. I noticed that Adora was was looking through some grocery bags as I set the pizzas down. I caught a glimpse of a womans face on a small box. I knew immediately what the contents of the grocery bags were and tried to leave the room quickly. But Adora was faster.

"Where do you think you're going?"

"Adora. You know I don't like hair dye. I could never cover up my beautiful hair with fake color. I would rather die before dying my hair."

"Those hunters saw us, that means they'll be looking for us. That means we have to hide."

I gave her puppy eyes, "B-but, Adora!"

Adora just grabbed my shoulders and forced my down to sit in a chair she prepared. "Sit!" She told me the same way you'd tell a dog to sit, the irony was not lost on me. I hated dying my hair, it was a natural beautiful black that I loved. The black mean it would need to be bleached, I cringed at the thought. There was little I could do as Adora began wetting my hair and applying the dye.

When we were done I was a blonde and Adora harbored a dark honey that surprisingly only made her look even more pretty and badass than her black hair did. I looked like a stereotypical white girl, all I needed now was starbucks, skinny jeans and a photo to instagram with. I frowned at the new person in the mirror.

"I hate blondes…"

"I know how you feel but we need to lay low for a while." Adora tossed me a black beanie, she wore a similar beanie of lighter colors, it wasn't much but it was enough to cover up our ears. After our scuffle with the hunters we managed to run all the way to another town where we stole a credit card and hijacked a car. We only stopped to get dinner and decide where to go next. Adora grabbed her jacket and the car keys from the motel room and walked outside, I followed her.

While she locked up the room I surveyed the parking lot, We had gotten far enough away but I wouldn't put it past hunters to find us after all that, it's happened before. The tricky thing about being far enough away is that it was only just 'enough'. I fell into step beside Adora and we began a conversation.

"Where are we now?" I asked.

"I think we're in Phili."

"All the way in Phili?!" Our base of operations was 1000 miles in another state, after finishing that job with the vamp we should have headed straight for Missouri, the place we got the job from. You see Adora and I are part of a sort of organization of hunters, there are researchers who look for demonic omens, lore enthusiasts, cooks for the station and field workers, that's what Adora and I were. Every once in a while when a job flowed in we had to pounce on it as quickly as possible otherwise it would disappear. We never knew when another job would show up.

"Technically right outside Phili." Adora corrected herself as she bought a map from an information teller. She pointed to where we were then to where we needed to go. "In the town of Harrisburg. So we need to-" Adora kept talking but my mind had wandered off as something caught my attention. Out of the corner of my eye I saw something shiftily move into an alleyway.

Plaid shirt...heavy jacket in summer time...I recognized the same hunter whom we had run away from. I looked everywhere for the other one but I didn't see him. Maybe it's only that one here...either way we need to leave… I knew the right thing to do would be to tell Adora the hunters had found us and that we had to leave as soon as possible but something pulled me in the hunters direction. I told Adora I was heading into a close by shops bathroom and sneaked away.

Adora was blissfully unaware as I slipped into the alleyway the hunter had come from. I was expecting to see him hiding behind a doorway or something but I saw nothing. My danger senses went on hyperdrive, I waited a while just listening for footsteps. Finally I found them, behind me the hunter was waiting.

I whirled around before his blade got close to me and kicked the weapon out of his hands. I waited for a reaction as I held my ground in a stance I'd learned from self-defense classes.

"Hold it!" The hunter shouted. "I just wanna ask you a few questions!" He sounded panicky but stern, that didn't exactly make me want to trust him. I held my ground and waited for him to speak. "I just want to know-" He began shakily, not at all like a hardy unforgiving hunter should sound when facing off against a supernatural creature. "Why did you kill that vamp?"

I frowned. "I don't have to explain myself to you." The words came out as more of a snarl then anything.

"You're a supernatural creature, yeah? Just like your sister back there." He pointed a thumb back towards the way I came in where no doubt Adora was getting anxious as I was taking too long.

"She's not my sister, but yeah."

"What would you want with a vamp?"

I got annoyed, this hunter obviously didn't want to fight and he seemed less of a threat now than any hunter I'd faced did. I couldn't read his motives, I stayed on alert just in case. "Nothing, it's just the job we took." I explained when the hunter shoot me a look of confusion. "Kill a vamp we get money for next week's food, that's how it goes in the Hunter's Lodge."

"Hunter's Lodge?"

I was surprised he hadn't heard about it. almost every hunter knew, but I guess since it's formation two years ago there were still hunters left out of the loop. "Are you a newbie or something? Every hunter can take jobs from the Lodge if they need a little extra cash. It's the only decent living hunters can hope to make."

"So that's why you killed him. This 'Hunter's Lodge' is a place where any hunter can find monsters to kill?"

"Yeah...That's pretty much the point." Then something crossed my mind. "You know, shouldn't you be trying to kill me right now? I thought that's what hunter's do to supernatural creatures."

The hunter almost laughed, a small smirk played on his lips as he said, "My brother's the one who wants to kill you. I just want to know why you killed the vamp."

"Well you got your answer. Does this mean you'll leave us alone."

"I would...But my brother doesn't let go of these things so easily."

"And I don't suppose you're going to go against your brothers word. After all, hunters don't really have families so you two must be all you have." I put my hands behind my head lazily and turned away in disinterest. "So what you gonna kill me now or-?"

"Actually, no."

The hunters decision caught me off guard, I turned back to him quizzically. "What?"

"I can lead my brother away from you and your friend, as long as you get out of here as fast as you can."

"Why should I trust you?"

"You shouldn't. But I don't care for killing the innocent."

"That's it? No big spheal about how monsters aren't innocent no matter how they try to redeem themselves?"

"The way I see it, you guys are hunters."

I squinted suspiciously, this hunter was different than any other hunter I'd met before. No one was ever so quick to be lenient towards us. I took a step forward, could I trust him? The hunter seemed sincere enough, and he hadn't made a move to attack me since he approached. What he was offering could possibly save our skins. If only he distracted his brother or sent him off on a goose chase we could escape without having too much trouble. I faced the six foot giant and said; "Lead him northeast, tell him you got a lead from another hunter or something." The hunter smiled as I walked past him. When I was about to exit the alleyway I turned to him. "And if I find you double-crossed us I'll rip your pathetic human heart out." I showed him my wolf teeth just to get the message across. He didn't seem intimidated but none the less he offered me his word. He held out a hand, but I refused. Instead I asked; "What's your name."

"Sam Winchester."
